We left home on Thursday morning and got to Hong Kong Friday night. Travel went really smoothly and the best part is we got to have 7 seats on the flight over here to share between the 4 of us. So the flight was as enjoyable as a 15 hour flight can be.
Hong Kong was really great but super hot! We went out for pizza on Friday night and the reason I didn't blog is we literally fell into our beds after that and slept until the next morning. Neve did wake up at 2am and read her book for a while but went back to sleep after a while. After breakfast we walked around but it was so hot we had to go back to the hotel and then the girls had a swim but I forgot my camera.
Our flight from Hong Kong to Fuzhou was pretty quick. We were quickly introduced back to China though when as soon as the plane was off the ground someone whipped out their cigarette on the non-smoking flight and no one said a thing.
Fuzhou is very pretty! Lots of greenery and winding roads. We just got to our hotel and it's small so it's going to be tight in here for the next 6 days.
Tomorrow is the BIG day! We meet Oliver at 3:30pm which is 3:30am your time. Please be praying for him! He has no idea what big changes lie ahead for him so he'll be nervous and scared. We are going to do whatever it takes to comfort him though, we have toys, candy, snacks galore and lots of hugs and kisses and love.
The girls have been awesome! Jemma is an amazing traveler and Neve has been bouncing around with excitement.
We are missing Liam and Flynn so much! I think about them all the time and the girls ask about them often. I can't wait to see them again! If you're reading this Liam, I love you. Kiss Flynnie for me!!
Here are some pics from the last couple days and I'll blog again tomorrow. We're off to find something to eat and then to bed because jetlag stinks and we can barely keep our eyes open. I messed up with the order of the pics but too tired to fix them..
